Pastoral americana es una novela del escritor estadounidense Philip Roth, publicada en 1997. La novela ganó el Premio Pulitzer de Ficción en 1998. La historia sigue a Swede Levov, un atleta legendario de su instituto en Newark, que crece durante los años de posguerra, se casa con una antigua Miss New Jersey, hereda la fábrica de guantes de su padre y se traslada a una casa de piedra en la villa idílica de Old Rimrock. Hasta que un buen día de 1968 a Swede lo abandona la suerte americana que lo había sonreído hasta entonces. Merry, su hija estimada, ha crecido. Antes era una niñita adorable y despierta. Ahora se ha convertido en una adolescente malcarada y fanática capaz de llevar a cabo un extravagante acto de terrorismo político. De la noche al día, Swede es separado de la pastoral americana y lanzado a la locura americana idiosincrásica.
Philip Milton Roth was an American novelist and short-story writer. Roth's fiction—often set in his birthplace of Newark, New Jersey—is known for its intensely autobiographical character, for philosophically and formally blurring the distinction between reality and fiction, for its "sensual, ingenious style" and for its provocative explorations of Jewish and American identity. He first gained attention with the 1959 short story collection Goodbye, Columbus, which won the U.S. National Book Award for Fiction. Ten years later, he published the bestseller Portnoy's Complaint. Nathan Zuckerman, Roth's literary alter ego, narrates several of his books. A fictionalized Roth narrates some of his others, such as the alternate history The Plot Against America.
